Spring is here

Post by Klapatta »

Time to wake up little Cubbie time to wake up. Spring is here and there's work to be done.
The flower beds need cleaning and the rocks need go be back in the driveway.

I like to disconnect the gas line before storage, drain the tank, and burn out every last drop till they choke out and die.
I replenished the gas and checked for good fuel flow. I tossed in a nicely charged battery and a freshly cleaned plug for good measure.
Touched the key and off she went :D

So after lunch it's time to get to work on those flower beds.

Nice tractor. Is that a 126 with a 169 air filter? Tough looking cub cadet, like the double stack cub weights. Yeah I drain all the fuel out of mine before putting them to bed too. Nice yours is up and running
too many IH cub cadets

You have a good eye Rick. The engine is stock. The KT17 air cleaner provides more filtration and replacement elements cost only a couple of bucks more.
